Progressive Lenses

Progressive lenses, sometimes called "no-line bifocals," give you a more youthful appearance by eliminating the visible lines found in bifocal and trifocal lenses. They provide the ability to see at all distances, including arm’s length for computer use and up close for reading.

Progressive lenses are the most natural form of vision correction available for patients with presbyopia, as they eliminate the “image jump” present in standard bifocal and trifocal lenses. Progressive lenses provide a smooth transgression from the distance through intermediate to near vision with all the in-between corrections included.

This constant graduation of the prescription means that you can look up to see in the distance, look ahead to view things such as the computer in the intermediate zone, and drop your gaze downward to read and do fine work comfortably up close.

With so many progressive lens designs and options available today, the choices can be overwhelming without professional advice. Ask Dr. Nash about progressive lenses at your next appointment!
